Over 5,000 lies since taking office... so far...

https://www.cnn.com/2018/09/13/politics/donald-trump-truth-facts-lies/index.html


(CNN)On his 601st day in office, President Donald Trump broke what many people might have assumed was an unbreakable barrier: He said his 5,000th thing that was either totally false or partially untrue.

That's according to the count being kept by the invaluable folks at The Washington Post's Fact Checker blog. And, what's even more amazing than a President who is averaging -- repeat: averaging -- more than eight untruths a day is this: Trump's penchant for saying false things is exponentially increasing as his presidency wears on.

In Trump's first 100 days, he averaged 4.2 falsehoods a day. That number has almost doubled in the intervening 500 days -- propelled by Trump's increasing willingness to be completely untethered from facts for longer and longer periods of time.

"On Sept. 7, President Trump woke up in Billings, Mont., flew to Fargo, N.D., visited Sioux Falls, S.D., and eventually returned to Washington. He spoke to reporters on Air Force One, held a pair of fundraisers and was interviewed by three local reporters.
In that single day, he publicly made 125 false or misleading statements — in a period of time that totaled only about 120 minutes. It was a new single-day high."
From Sept. 4 to Sept. 13, Trump averaged 32 false of misleading claims a day. 32 a day!
...



How is this even remotely acceptable?!?!?! And his supporters don't care. All of the REAL news and facts are "fake", but the verifiable lies and untruths by IQ45 are taken as true.

His mother should have washed out his mouth with soap when he was a child.
Maybe then he would have thought twice about speaking out of turn.
